When we found out Blackburn's owners wanted us to do a chicken advert for Venky's, we didn't really know what to think. I had to pretend to love it, but the truth is, one bite and my stomach was in knots.

I can tell some names that played with me at Real Madrid and there's so many legends, everything is there. You know Roberto Carlos, Fernando Hierro, Raul, Zizou, Figo, Makelele, Ronaldo - the big one! - and Cristiano Ronaldo afterwards...pick any of those guys and you'd have an incredible team.

I always have a very good feeling with Arsenal. The objective always is to win the title but the big difference and them and Man United or Man City is they spend a lot of money for the big players, but when I see the names on paper for Arsenal...the squad is fantastic.

I follow F1, of course. For us, in Spain, Fernando Alonso has been the real turning point. It's not easy for a driver to win two world championships and it was unbelievable for Spain to have someone that could do that for us. Since that time, I've been following him and supporting him.

When Zinédine Zidane retired, he said he'd never be a manager and it wasn't in his plans. But after two years out, he missed football a lot. I think he retired a little bit early, he could have gone on for at least another season, and it would have been a pleasure for us to have him.

When you retire, you start to try different things and you choose the one you enjoy the most. As a player, it's difficult to know if you'll be a good manager or not because you might think you can't deal with the dressing room or won't enjoy the game from the sidelines. There's also punditry and careers on TV, so football gives you many different options.

I love F1, the cars and the speed. I love the race in Monaco for example, because there's such a special atmosphere on the streets and also, the race is very technical. I'm a big racing fan in general, so I'd love to try the cars.

Everybody is entitled to believe. Churches have exactly the same right to exist as a football club, a trade union or a political party. But if you and I set up the Church of the Fairies of the Garden, then I don't think we should automatically be meeting the queen, be entitled to seats in the House of Lords or get public money for our fairy schools.
He said something was unique: I like to push the limit to how much air we can put in the football, even go over what they allow you to do, and see if the officials take air out of it,
I'm not good for you. I don't know why you make me want you so bad. I was angry with myself when I said all that earlier. I was mad because I wanted you in a way I'd never experienced before. Before you, I just wanted to excel in football and school. I wanted my parents to be proud of me. But now, I want other things too. You get to me in a way I don't understand
I run angry. Football allows me to take out some of my pain on the field.
Goodbye, my almost lover. Goodbye, my hopeless dream. I'm trying not to think about you, can't you just let me be? So long, my luckless romance, my back is turned on you. Should've known you'd bring me heartache. Almost lovers always do.
The interesting adults are always the school failures, the weird ones, the losers, the malcontents, this isnâ€™t wishful thinking. Itâ€™s the rule.
Some of my academic friends think Ive fallen from a very special grace.
Truth has no finality to it. It is not something to be held on to. Truth is discovered minute to minute or not at all.
The Truth is the only thing youâ€™ll ever run into that has no agenda.
Knowing all truth is less than doing a little bit of good.
